Among my many facts that shock people is one that I don’t often discuss – the letter I earned in my junior year in high school on the women’s track team. This was at West Mifflin Area High School in 1987. I was never an athlete. I played softball recreationally, but my horrible depth perception […]
Kesha Webster was found dead on Charleston Drive in Jackson, Mississippi on Saturday, March 26, 2022.
